We asked Paris a few questions about the upcoming Miss Louisiana Teen USA pageant that she will be competing in.

How are you feeling about the pageant now all the contestants have been announced and it’s getting closer? The adrenaline is starting to kick in! I am so excited to be able to meet all the contestants! All the girls I have met already have been so kind and welcoming. I’m so excited to have my family and friends there to support me in this new experience.

How has your prep been building up to Miss Louisiana USA? Pageant prep has been exciting! I have been practicing with my coach who is amazing and who pushes me to do my best. Shout out to my amazing coach Lexi! Taking new headshots and picking out my new photos to submit was something i looked forward too since the day i registered to compete. Shout out to The Headshots Guy who did amazing work in capturing my new photos. Chosing my wardrobe, accessories and photos has been so much fun over the last several months!

What are you most excited about? I am most excited about interview! I love having great conversations and meeting people in the process while showing off my personality!

Are there any sponsors/partners you want to give a shoutout to? There are so many people who have helped me get to this point of being able to compete. I would like to acknowledge and thank my sponsors Obsession Boutique, B & J Seafood, Barras Inflatables, EMR, Marques Countertops and all my family and friends who made this possible for me.
